| signature series from CES
So Beefy and Sexy, I hope they have a T or D class that does 800 watts at 2 ohm, scared of the price though
By the way i think the new Chip Foose series are lame, check it out: Arc Audio Foose
What you guys think?

| I like the sheer size of those amps, but when they do the whole foose things, it makes me think of them as bazooka.

| Sig's look sexy alright. Likely because they look just like Zapco C2K's. |

| Why does adding Foose cheapen the amp?? Hell, he's one of the top car fabricators on the planet. Not like it's a Wil Castro edition [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] |

| i gotta be honest. this seems like a preaty typical amp. nothing too speacial about it at all? but just like anything else there are usually some hidden secrets about the product that might make it worth your while.

| After Hearing so much about these sig series amps from arc for the past few years, they finally finished them. Nice lookin product, cant wait to try it out.
But than again nothing revolutionary to be said about them. Definately looking more forward to the zapco full digital amps. |

| Only thing revolutionary that could possibly happen with amps is to be able to make power from thin air............ anyways, those sig series have tricks up their sleeves. Mr. Zeff wouldn't be saying they are the best he's ever made for nothing. That's a BIG statement to make if they turn out just ho-hum in my opinion. Personally, I'm just waiting to get my hands on one to wind it out some............. then I'll have a real opinion.
OF note, I was talking to someone at CES who is VERY well known on the comp circuit in SQ. His car has amps that have nothing but pure amplification......... none of the other processing junk etc, etc. Hmmmmmm, that would almost be revolutionary for a manufacturer............ almost. |

| yeah the new signature series looks great but I am sure that the real suprise is what is under the heatsink. I assume these are a step up from the XXK line, and those amps are amazing. Cant wait to hear them.
I noticed that the Foose line looks similar to the Kar seires from last year just with some cosmetic changes. I have a fair bit of experience with the Kar line and must say that it gives you above average performance for a below average price.
Hey Tom am I thinking of the same person that you are talking about with the "special" amps??? Was I with you when he mentioned it back last year??? |
